- My practice has been about fifty per cent plaintiff's personal injury
litigation. The rest has been a potpourri of general civil litigation. I have represented
small and medium sized businesses, and I have
sued small, medium sized and large businesses.
- I have, in federal court, successfully attacked and had declared
unconstitutional two local ordinances restricting the use of portable
signs. Both of these cases were upheld on appeal. Dills v. Marietta,
674 F.2d 1377 and Dills v. Cobb County, 755 F.2d 1473.
- I have, with varying degrees of success, sued doctors, hospitals,
insurance companies, banks, executors of estates, an automobile
manufacturer, builders, developers, foreign nationals and various
governmental agencies.
- I successfully attacked a county tax assessment of a subdivision's
recreational property, resulting in lowering the tax bill from about
$1,600.00 to $40.00 (forty) per year. I am currently working with
about fifty subdivisions, with an eye toward a class action suit,
which could result in this particular county having to forgive
millions of dollars in tax assessments.
